What Causes Phlegm Deposits Around The Cheek?
i went to the dentist and had a panaromic x-ray of my teeth and we discovered that around my right cheeks appear to be deposits of phlem. I have been suffering with a sinus infection since September 2011, my right nose is stuffy and especially at night I can not breath from the righjt nostril. Can you tell me what this appearance in the upper right cheeks indicate?

Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,
Usually waht you said a phlem deposition is not seen over the right cheek, i Would suggest you to get it examined again.
As you have mentioned the primary cause is sinus infection I would suggest you to get it treated first.
Take care!
